DONORS TO THE BUILDING PROJECT
We Need Your Assistance with
The Building Project
The building fund is gradually growing and is approaching $800,000.00. In order to build a facility that will meet the needs of future generations, the steering committee is aiming for a total of 1.4 million. This figure will provide for a beautiful building, state of the art exhibits, and a suitable operating fund. We have met with professional museum curators and are following their recommendations. The new museum/learning center will feature.
• An attractive building with a classroom suitable for school groups, 4-H, scouts, etc.
• Offices for the Seymour Community Historical Society, Inc. and the Home of the Hamburger, Inc.
• Interactive displays utilizing the latest technology.
• An emphasis on Seymour area history preserving our local heritage.
• A research area for people interested in genealogy and family history.
• A secure area suitable to show traveling exhibits.
• Adequate storage space for the society’s collection.
• An area to recognize and remember community organizations, businesses, and school activities.
HELP PRESERVE YOUR HERITAGE
Cash Donation
Pledges can be divided up over several years. The historical society is incorporated as an educational organization and all donations are tax deductible.
Stock Transfer
The society has a brokerage account and stock can be transferred directly to that account to realize tax savings.
Estate Planning
Please keep the Seymour Community Historical Society, Inc. in mind when you do your estate planning. Tax benefits are available when giving to an educational corporation.
In-Kind Donations
Perhaps you own a business and would prefer to donate labor, a skill, or materials for the building. You or your business will be credited for the dollar value of the gift.
Recognition for a Loved One
All donors who contribute $500.00 or more will be provided with the opportunity to have their name or a name they designate, on a donor plaque in the entryway. Naming rights for pictures and sponsorships for displays are available at various levels of giving starting at $2,500.00. Details are available on the SCHS Web site, (www.seymourshistory.org) or on pledge cards and descriptive brochures. This is an excellent opportunity to display a memory for your family while contributing to a great cause.
